This is an awesome piece. It's a subtle but very powerful conceptual flip. I've had a sense about this regarding my own abilities (and lack thereof) and pursuits for some time, but never had the framework to clarify what it was.

Addressing bugs is an effective way to get shit done. Also, when you realize that you have corrected for some bugs, you don't feel half as bad about what you currently cannot do. I'm saving this post. It's one of those conceptual seeds that I know will grow into something that affects my thinking in other areas.
